LITHUANIA PLANNING TO ESTABLISH EMBASSY IN GEORGIA
VILNIUS, Mar 15
Lithuania's parliamentary Foreign Affairs Committee approved during
its sitting on Monday of the proposal to establish Lithuania's
embassy in Georgia.
Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Gediminas Kirkilas told BNS it was
scheduled to establish embassy in Tbilisi in the end of May, and it
would represent Lithuania not only in Georgia but also in Armenia and
Azerbaijan.
Lithuania is currently represented in Georgia by an ambassador
residing in Ukraine, ambassador to Russia represents the country in
Armenia and envoy residing in Turkey represents it in Azerbaijan.
Meantime, the Georgian Embassy in Vilnius was opened in September
last year. Before that, Georgian Consulate General operated in
Vilnius since 1996.
In Kirkilas' words, decision on the candidacy of Lithuania's
ambassador to Tbilisi should be made in the nearest months.
